Project Name: Ephemeral Memorials Project Credits: Various Project Brief Description:
Ephemeral Memorials are phenomena that serve as a mouring function to commemorate a tragic event. They are a way for people to deal with loss, and feel support from a greater community as even strangers share in the grief of mourning. They usually consist of people leaving flowers, candles, notes and even gifts. These memorials are often, but not always, site specific. In the case of the United Flight 93 Memorial, commemorating the flight that crashed during the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks, site plays an important role, tying mourners to the location of the tragedy.
